An apparatus for supporting a rotatable platform. The apparatus includes a movable support member and a countering mechanism that exerts a mechanical force on the support member. The support member is mounted on a structure proximate said platform, and the countering mechanism forces the support member onto the platform during a portion of rotation of the platform relative to said structure. The countering mechanism is configured based on the weight of the platform and the resulting gravity loading force sustained by the support member during said portion of rotation of the platform, whereby the countering mechanism exerts sufficient countering force on the support member to partially counter the loading force by the platform while allowing rotation of the platform during said portion of the rotation of the platform.

    Linvention concerne un appareil destiné à supporter une plateforme rotative. Lappareil comprend un élément de support mobile et un contre-mécanisme qui exerce une force mécanique sur lélément de support. Lélément de support est monté sur une structure à proximité de ladite plateforme et le contre-mécanisme pousse lélément de support sur la plateforme pendant une partie de la rotation de la plateforme par rapport à ladite structure. Le contre-mécanisme est conçu sur la base du poids de la plateforme et de la force de charge de gravité résultante soutenue par lélément de support pendant ladite partie de rotation de la plateforme, le contre-mécanisme exerçant ainsi une contre-force suffisante sur lélément de support pour contrer partiellement la force de charge par la plateforme tout en permettant la rotation de la plateforme pendant ladite partie de la rotation de la plateforme.
